    I bought my last two phones outright and used them with a SIM-only contract. Is that not possible in the US?

    Buy the phone outright and you avoid all that shit.

    Ones you've heard of maybe but the Windows ecosystem is vast and not all applications make sense as a web app. There are also thousands of existing applications being regularly updated, MS Office plugins, document templates ActiveX etc. Don't forget games as well. Microsoft wouldn't have bothered porting WinForms and WPF to .NET Core if Windows was now just a web app launcher.

    Apart from all the things that aren't, obviously.

    Why would he be stuck on .NET Core 2.0? 2.2 is the current version and is available for the three platforms, as is the 3.0 preview. As for .NET Framework 4 it looks like that won't be getting the same attention as .NET Core anymore https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.c...

    Quite often there is no help even when you search on the code.

  14. The only alternative is a giant shady organisation monitoring everything you do online. Not at all Orwellian.

  15. What an incredible innovation on Windows Setup Error Messages Will Soon Actually Help Fix Problems (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Giving users useful information rather than "0x80000005 an unknown error has occurred". I wonder how much more productive people in the Windows ecosystem would be if Microsoft could be bothered to write their error messages properly.

  16. Android has way more exploits than iOS in the wild due to the wholly inadequate update system. Open source software in general has had its fair share of bugs too.

  17. What is your bug-free development methodology?

  18. It sucks but it could be worse - you could have an Android phone that will never get any security fixes.

    What tinkering do you have to do with a standard corporate laptop? I spend no time tinkering with mine.

  20. Luckily you know that everything that can be invented already has been and that there will be no further human advancement. Whatever would we do without you?

    Because you might find yourself in a situation where you can't afford private healthcare. The NHS has its problems but I'd be in a much worse place in my life if I hadn't been able to access healthcare when I was poorer.

    Why do people who are against universal healthcare think that it wouldn't be possible to get health insurance on top of the state system?

  24. Why do I never see any of you geniuses explaining this to neo-Nazis? I'm sure they'd be most grateful for the heads-up.

    That doesn't make it a good source. Their hysterical bullshit about vaccines causing autism is a case in point but there are many others.
